Hello,
Injury has nothing to do with white eyelash and eyebrow. As you have mentioned it is leucoderma pigment disorder. Since it is hair and eyelash application of ointments not advisable. Oral psoralen tablets can be tried. But since its location, it is better to consult a dermatologist for treatment and guidance.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
